I saw this on a sci-fi tv station . The food the machine gave out was the same orange looking fruit slice. But when different people ate the alien food, it tasted like what they were craving for. A food that can taste like your desire.
This is a novella or novel I read in the 90s. The main character was a teen who had spent his life on a large orbital space station. The station was known as Cyland (not sure about the spelling) because it was cylindrical in shape, and its inhabitants were referred to as Cylanders. There might ha...
What i remember most of the novel is the 3 friends who have to pass a physical rite of passage. One of the friends like a physical disability such as a haunched back which prevented him from jumping over a crevice in the test but the other two friends helped him jump the crevice together. One of ...
I read that story (possibly shortish novelette rather than technically "short story") at least 40 years ago.
A writer got rather successful with a series of murder mysteries with the same sleuth, a very effective but also extremely pretentious, even odious, character. To the former's dismay, his ...
This was a live action TV series; I think from the early 2000s.
The story was about a special police unit force, which was tasked to capture supernatural creatures. The creatures were mostly related to folklores, but some of them were just plain sci-fi monsters too, such as: sandman, bogeyman, va...
I’m trying to find an anime film I had when I was younger it would 90s maybe late 80s I can only remember one scene which is a young boy riding a Pegasus and he shouts Pegasus energise Pegasus fire and it turns into a weapon and blows snoring that was attacking a spacecraft/aircraft and the boy ...
The main problem is that I remember this movie very poorly. I clearly remember the moment that the boy went fishing, but there was some kind of magic and all the fish suddenly appeared above the lake, something like that was there. I understand that this knowledge is very little to find, but that...
@AncientSwordRage I don't "police" much other than spam/RA and blatant NaA. I will sometimes snark at a poorly formulated post from someone who should know better (i.e. >20k rep), but since I have no official capacity...
Actually, more recently I've started bringing my snark at questions here, instead of leaving them on the question itself.
@AncientSwordRage Arguably that's what downvotes are for, though
@Mithical That's even more of a problem for manga/manhwa/etc. I can't remember the last time there was a question about that which wasn't an ID question
So this is all the information given by Aslan about this island:
Many years ago in that world, in a deep sea of that world which is
called the South Sea, a shipload of pirates was driven by storm on an
island.
So it’s in the South Sea, which is the portion of the Pacific Ocean on the south of t...
@AncientSwordRage Yeah… a while back I was looking at questions and it just seemed like you couldn't ask a story-ID featuring a gay relationship without being downvoted, which I found disturbing. Though for some of those questions, it's possible that the downvotes were for other distasteful facets of the story or something
@Laurel Hmm... I don't know about gay relationships in general (I don't know what to search for) but the last few BL questions have all been manga-id questions that are only barely on-topic; those would collect a few downvotes regardless.
@Marvin Mith left just before this one popped up...
@AncientSwordRage Heh. I don't see drarry, so it's Someone Else's Problem.
I was thinking about Robinson's Callahan's Con the other day, and remembering some continuity errors in the book that vexed me (I don't have an electronic version to search through, so forgive my lack of lengthy quotes):
Example 1:
Field Agent Czrjghnczl gives Jake her cellphone on page 201, Jake...
